    Dennis, I just wanted to mention that I heard that you will be doing the lighting for ABC’s coverage of “the marriage of the century”! All I need is a little budget and we can do a behind the scenes video of the coverage for you…lol!

    I was intending to put a picture up of the modification I did to the small LTM projector so I can mount it on a 500w Strand Bambino…for a lot more punch. I will be doing this soon. For many of the shoots I have been doing for WPHL17 in — Better Philly and Phillies coverage, all seem to be run and gun shoots… very little lighting, maybe just a camera light for standup interviews…however, on Monday I am one of the shooters for 6ABC’s “Best of Class” program and I will be doing interviews of these top high school seniors… and I will be lighting w LED lights, tungsten fresnels for back and background lighting w/gobos… I will take some pictures and post on this thread.

    For those that are interested, this is the LED light I designed that I will be using…

    Yep….. unfortunately.
    All I need is to have my budget elevated to the status of meager, and I could actually do something worthy of a Royal Wedding.
    The studios I’ll be doing in London won’t be that much different from “run and gun”.
    Be sure to post your stills from “Best of Class”. What kinds of gobos are you using?
    Thanks
    DS
